TIL that the Sony PlayStation was never meant to be a product. It was intended to be a new console that would play exclusively Nintendo games on CDs. Instead Nintendo backed out of the deal at the last minute. Sony went ahead and launched what would become the most successful console of all time.posted by /u/Mtbguy56 on /r/todayilearned

Perhaps the most bizarre part of this classic story is that the PlayStation actually thrived. 3DO failed, Sega CD failed, CD-i failed, Saturn. . . Struggled. But PlayStation, a console by that company who made your VCR and Discman, managed to get companies like Konami, Squaresoft and Namco to make exclusive games for them within the first year. How in the blazing fuck did Sony pull that off and manage to outsell their competitors who were seasoned veterans with huge followings?posted by /u/Phoequinox on /r/todayilearned

ARTICLE I: ABUSE OF POWER`The Constitution provides that the House of Representatives “shall have the sole Power of Impeachment” and that the President “shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors”. In his conduct of the office of President of the United States—and in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed—Donald J. Trump has abused the powers of the Presidency, in that:`Using the powers of his high office, President Trump solicited the interference of a foreign government, Ukraine, in the 2020 United States Presidential election. He did so through a scheme or course of conduct that included soliciting the Government of Ukraine to publicly announce investigations that would benefit his reelection, harm the election prospects of a political opponent, and influence the 2020 United States Presidential election to his advantage. President Trump also sought to pressure the Government of Ukraine to take these steps by conditioning official United States Government acts of significant value to Ukraine on its public announcement of the investigations. President Trump engaged in this scheme or course of conduct for corrupt purposes in pursuit of personal political benefit. In so doing, President Trump used the powers of the Presidency in a manner that compromised the national security of the United States and undermined the integrity of the United States democratic process. He thus ignored and injured the interests of the Nation.`President Trump engaged in this scheme or course of conduct through the following means:`(1) President Trump—acting both directly and through his agents within and outside the United States Government—corruptly solicited the Government of Ukraine to publicly announce investigations into—`(A) a political opponent, former Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Jr.; and`(B) a discredited theory promoted by Russia alleging that Ukraine—rather than Russia—interfered in the 2016 United States Presidential election.`(2) With the same corrupt motives, President Trump—acting both directly and through his agents within and outside the United States Government—conditioned two official acts on the public announcements that he had requested—`(A) the release of $391 million of United States taxpayer funds that Congress had appropriated on a bipartisan basis for the purpose of providing vital military and security assistance to Ukraine to oppose Russian aggression and which President Trump had ordered suspended; and`(B) a head of state meeting at the White House, which the President of Ukraine sought to demonstrate continued United States support for the Government of Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression.`(3) Faced with the public revelation of his actions, President Trump ultimately released the military and security assistance to the Government of Ukraine, but has persisted in openly and corruptly urging and soliciting Ukraine to undertake investigations for his personal political benefit.`These actions were consistent with President Trump’s previous invitations of foreign interference in United States elections.`In all of this, President Trump abused the powers of the Presidency by ignoring and injuring national security and other vital national interests to obtain an improper personal political benefit. He has also betrayed the Nation by abusing his high office to enlist a foreign power in corrupting democratic elections.` Wherefore President Trump, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with self-governance and the rule of law. President Trump thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.`posted by /u/segvcore on /r/politics

The Second Amendment was incorporated against state and local governments, through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. (McDonald v. City of Chicago, 561 U.S. 742)`\"An unconstitutional act is not a law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation as inoperative as though it had never been passed.\" (Norton v. Shelby County, 118 U.S. 425)`\"Congress does not have the power to pass laws that override the Constitution.\" (Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 137)` “If the State converts a right into a privilege, the citizen can ignore the license and fee and engage in the right with impunity.” (Shuttlesworth v. City of Birmingham, Alabama, 373 U.S. 262)`posted by /u/Liberty_Pr1me on /r/gunpolitics

So basically, Bannon's gold-selling company also ran their own message boards for the game. He noticed that a lot of participants there felt ostracized by society and he thought he might be able to use those feelings to steer them towards far right political views. He saw a group of people who felt disenfranchised and wanted to take advantage of that to gain followers by giving them things to blame their problems on other than themselves. That's around the time that \"SJW\" started being used by those groups in a derogatory sense, that was one of the biggest boogiemen used to gain their support.`The whole Gamergate thing? Bannon took advantage of that to turn it into an alt-right recruitment drive, too. He directed Milo Yiannopoulos to start using it to their advantage and literally overnight Milo went from publishing articles criticizing the \"sex, drugs & violence\" in video games, blaming video games for Elliot Rodger's actions the day before \"The Zoe Post\" that kicked off the Gamergate nonsense, and [said gamers need a good slap](https://web.archive.org/web/20150413201308/https://twitter.com/Nero/status/504221455861952512) just days before publishing the article [\"Feminist Bullies Tearing The Video Game Industry Apart\"](https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2014/09/01/lying-greedy-promiscuous-feminist-bullies-are-tearing-the-video-game-industry-apart/).`All the current pro far-right, anti-SJW rhetoric in gaming communities is intrinsically linked to Bannon and, by extension, to Trump's campaign and the rest of the alt-right.` More on Bannon's WoW gold-selling business, too.`posted by /u/Vandrel on /r/SubredditDrama
